Itinerary
Included ExcursionsOur included excursions take in the unspoilt beaches and charming towns of Spain's beautiful 'White Coast'; from the ancient, winding streets of Valencia, home of paella, to the thriving harbour town of Alicante. We also travel to the charming towns of Murcia, renowned for its stunning cathedral, as well as Denia and Javea. In addition, we venture inland to Guadalest for a half-day excursion high in the mountains and enjoy some time browsing the stalls at the famous local market in Altea.Valencia (full day)The charming city of Valencia is the third largest city in Spain after Madrid and Barcelona. It has a picturesque Old Quarter with a labyrinth of cobbled streets, lined with medieval buildings and towers that were once part of the ancient wall that surrounded the old city. There are also city beaches with tree-lined promenades, scenic gardens and an attractive cathedral, all of which make Valencia one of the country's most popular tourist destinations.Alicante & Elche (full day)The major landmark of the thriving harbour town of Alicante is the medieval Castle of Santa Barbara, which stands on the top of Mount Benacantil, offering fabulous views of the city. Other attractions include the Esplanada de España, a palm-tree-lined promenade paved with wavy marble floor tiles, and the Gravina Palace, located in the Old Town. The marina is a popular hotspot full of restaurants, cafés and a shopping centre and is the perfect place to admire the luxury yachts moored here.Our next stop is Elche, well-known for its beautiful palm trees (the largest palm tree in Europe is cultivated here) and shoemaking tradition. Considered to be one of the most important cities in the Province, Elche is home to two UNESCO World Heritage sights. Explore at your leisure some of the many highlights, such as the Basilica de Santa Maria and the famous 'Huerto del Cura' - where you will find the great imperial palm and more than 2,000 species of flora and fauna.Javea & Denia (full day)Sheltered between two rocky headlands, the seaside town of Javea still has the charm of the ancient fishing village it once was. The fishing harbour is situated next to an attractive marina while its historic quarter is full of beautiful architecture and monuments such as the church of San Bartolomé. The town also boasts a wide sandy beach flanked by a promenade of shops, bars and restaurants.Next, we visit Denia, a coastal town, home to a castle located on a rocky crag overlooking the city, which offers spectacular views of the surrounding area. Denia also has a large port and marina with plenty of bars, cafés and restaurants lining its waterfront.Murcia (full day)Handsome Murcia is home to an impressive cathedral and a number of beautiful historic buildings with colourful plazas nestling in between its narrow streets. The city is divided by the Segura River, spanned with bridges of different styles; the oldest being Puente de los Peligros, an 18th-century stone bridge.Guadalest (half day)We venture inland for a half-day excursion to the picturesque village of Guadalest, perched on top of a rock high in the mountains. With fabulous views across the valley, the village also has numerous museums and craft shops where you can stock up on souvenirs while its castle can only be accessed through a tunnel carved through the rock.Altea Market (half day)We travel to the city of Altea for a half-day excursion to browse the many wares on display at the famous local market. This fixture of the city takes place every week and offers a wide range of great quality products at bargain prices, from leather goods, clothing and jewellery to fresh food, sweet treats and colourful flowers, all sold by local stallholders.Villajoyosa (half day)For this half-day excursion, we visit the colourful coastal town of Villajoyosa, known to the locals as La Vila. This pretty town is famous for the many brightly coloured homes on the palm-tree-lined promenade and for chocolate! Visit the Valor Chocolate Museum to learn the history of local chocolate-making and see how it is made. Don't forget to visit their in-house shop for some free samples or purchases.

Benidorm
Benidorm is one of Spain's most popular seaside resorts. Situated on the Costa Blanca (White Coast), in the sunny south-east of the country, Benidorm is a fantastic year-round destination with hot summers and mild winters.
Benidorm was just a small fishing village until the 1960s when it began to grow into the Mediterranean holiday 'mecca' we see today. It offers golden, sandy beaches (the two main beaches are Levante Beach and Poniente Beach), palm tree-lined promenades, recreational activities, shops, cafés, bars and restaurants as well as a thriving nightlife.
Perched on a promontory, between the two main beaches, stands the beautiful Old Town. Wander through the maze of narrow, cobbled streets and alleyways, browse the quaint boutiques or enjoy some local tapas. Don't miss the 18th-century Church of San Jaime with its blue dome or the panoramic sea views from the Balcony of the Mediterranean.
